[project b6t]

Sorry my car isn't done yet but i just wanted to post pictures for fun

88' festiva with a 6 point roll cage, OMP race shell, and 4 point harnesses. Ground control coil overs built for the festiva (300 in/lb spring rate in the front and 200 in the rear). B6T with g25m-r swap in the process. I hope to have the car all finished up some time soon and i will post pictures, till then injoy i guess.

Looking good. Better hurry as you only have 2 1/2 months to get it ready for Ohiostiva .

I only have 2-1/2 months so i pass high school LOL

(this car is my high school senior project)

Plus i definitely want to hit up ohiostiva

[B6T]

Perhaps I can make it to Ohiostiva... Ohio isn' that far from my house. Anyone have directions to the place where it is held?

^^ GIT-R-DONE
Karl is working on printing up some directions I believe, To make it easier
I would like to see this go over BIG

Fred you are probably closer than i am. If not the same distance :shock:

That'd be great if Ian and Fred could make it!

I'll work on a link to Yahoo maps or Mapquest or something with the Classic Minis location already put in. Then folks can simply put in their departure point and get a map.

Ian, I'd love to see that roll cage close up. I'd like to put one in the future Speedstiva, though not so complete. Just to increase safety and stiffness a little bit and provide a mounting point for my racing harness and fire extinguisher. And cappucino machine...

back to the topic here...nice ride! whats your plans for wheels and tires?

[eye_of_ra93]

Looks great, great job on that cage

[project b6t]

Enkei PKR's 16x6.5 with fuzion tires (not sure yet thats on the ass end of my list of stuff to buy/do). Then at some point i am going to get some light wheels 7-7.5 inchs wide by 16" with DOT slicks. If you can see i cut the strut perch to the same size as my coil overs. That will hopefully allow me to run a wider tire.

I am building the car for autocross and with out a lsd i need as wide of a tire as i can get :?

The B6T will be a handful at AutoX's, I have trouble with wheelspin with 195/55/14 Victoracers (R compound tires) with just my B6 SOHC... -Kyle
